Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Complex neural network systems are essential tools investigated and applied by academic researchers and industry. Recent advances in computer sciences, robotics, and mathematics have introduced new technologies and expanded the opportunities for neural network applications. Knowledge and understanding of these technologies have led to the development of new models, novel methods, and extending the existing techniques for analysis of the neural network dynamics.
Original research articles that will contribute to the development of the theory of complex neural network systems are invited. The focus will be on models as well as methods that explore aspects of dynamics in complex neural networks. Experimental and applied research results are also welcomed. Potential topics of the Special Issue include but are not limited to:
- Stability theory and strategies;
- Control theory;
- Extended stability strategies;
- Delayed neural networks;
- Impulsive neural networks;
- Fractional-order neural networks;
- Cohen–Grossberg neural networks;
- Reaction–diffusion neural networks;
- Biological neural network models;
- Bifurcation strategies;
- Entropy in complex neural networks;
- Asymptotic behavior;
- Applications in science and engineering.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Entropy is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
